History

Like the South Saskatchewan river that runs through the community we’ve called home since the 1940’s, we’ve been a familiar presence in the lives of ‘Hatters and those in Southeastern Alberta.

Originally called Star Meat and Grocery in the mid 1940’s, then Mook & Sons in the early 70’s, Mook Holdings Ltd in the 80’s, and finally known as Mook Fabrics since the late 1990s. From the Star Meat and Grocery days up until the 80’s, we operated continuously out of a corner store / home garage location in the River Flats area of Medicine Hat.

Today, we’ve evolved and expanded our Headquarters in Medicine Hat from that one small garage into 30,000 square feet of fabrics and textiles for retail and wholesale. We’ve also grown beyond Alberta to having a location in Winnipeg, Manitoba and 2 locations in Pennsylvania in the USA.

While our business has expanded to meet the needs of local and international customers, our values and commitment remain rooted in the community. And our phone number has not changed since at least 1957. Hard to get more local than that.
